Big Love?

[asterroc]

Anyone been watching the HBO show "Big Love"? It's about a Mormon-ish polygamous (polygynous, technically) suburban family. I found a NY Times article on it that is part review but mostly interview with a few women who have themselves lived in polygamous relationships. Some of the things they say are interesting:

While the women said "Big Love" had too much skin and not enough religion or humor for their taste, they agreed that it portrayed the Henricksons like any other American family, especially in an era of mixed marriages of all sorts, gay partnerships, single parents and serial monogamy.

shoujo_mallet and I have been watching it since it came out. It's amusing. And the sex scenes are fun. I mean, haven't you always wanted to see Bill Paxton's ass?

Ooh, that NYTimes piece really makes me want to write a letter, or maybe an op-ed. If only I had time! But it would be very appropriate to write it on my honeymoon, I suppose. *)
